Our constitution describes the 4 basic elements through which the council operates: the Council, the Executive, Overview and Scrutiny, and the Committees.
The constitution sets out:
- The rules and procedures we and our committees need to follow
- The decision making powers of the executive and of committees
- Your right to inspect reports and background documents
- Codes of conduct for councillors and employees
- Information about members' interests and members' allowances
